Abstract

This paper studies a second cumulant/h-infinity control problem with multiple players for a nonlinear stochastic system on a finite-horizon. The second cumulant/h-infinity control problem, which is a generalization of the higher-order multi-objective control problem, involves a control method with multiple performance indices. The necessary condition for the existence of Nash equilibrium strategies for the second cumulant/h-infinity control problem is given by the coupled Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations. In addition, a threeplayer Nash strategy is derived for the second cumulant/h-infinity control problem. A simulation example is given to illustrate the application of the proposed theoretical formulations.
